M-db- I was inspired by my neighbor, Al, he played drums. His extended family was in the music promotion business. They booked The Allman Brothers, and many acts of that caliber in the 70’s. He ended up with hundreds of promo albums, got concert t...

Bdp24- I have not heard them, but see them around infrequently for sale. I owned some 4312’s a few years back. Are they similar? Rbstehno- I agree, it is all cymbals. Your remarks encouraged me to put on some Kansas, I always enjoyed his drumming....

Elizabeth,I have a Furman conditioner and use after market power cords- some are Pangea.Thanks for the Kimber suggestion, I’ll keep it in mind going forward.Thanks,gary 
Hihat Question
Thanks again.I fine tuned my positioning and adjusted the speaker rake a bit. I sit low on a modern style sofa, so that adjustment helped. I’m happy with the sound now, especially after reading these posts and getting a sense of how recordings dif... 
Hihat Question
Bdp24,I’m fine hearing the music as it was recorded/mastered. My integrated has tone controls, but I utilize the bypass mode.I was given some music suggestions earlier in the thread to use as a guide. Hopefully, I’ll listen to some of them today. ... 
Hihat Question
Thanks for all the great feedback. I have more than enough bass as is, so I’ll see if some changes in positioning will help me with the highs. If if I can gain a little more in the treble region I’ll be happy. Overall, I enjoy my system, so hopefu...

Good joke! I’d be very skinny if I had to drum for a living! 
Hihat Question
Erik,Many of my past components had no tone controls, so I’m in the habit of bypassing them on the Anthem. However, when I dial up the treble on the integrated, it still falls short, to my ears-I can hear it ‘all’ when I am close to the speaker. M...

Shadorne, thanks for the tip, I own some 10 wpc tube monos I can try out to see if it helps any- but they are not up to grade of gear you suggest. Tomic601, I better bow out of the drummers role now, especially after hearing Patricia Barber’s drum... 
Hihat Question
Joe,I understand, one of my previous speakers were Vandersteen 2 sigs, and my experience seems similar. I also agree, in my system anyway, speakers make the biggest difference. Thanks for the feedback on the other models and your findings, I wonde... 
Hihat Question
Thanks everybody. I’ll check those recordings out in the next few days. The Patricia Barber (A Fortnight in France) disc I own sounds great, drums and all. I’ll gut check my speaker positioning and listening distance as well to insure I’m not sacr... 
Surprised at this Chinese powered speakers for peanuts...
I agree with you. My girlfriend uses a pair for her tv. I think they sound great, especially for the money.  
Has anyone added a small subwoofer to 2 channel and been thrilled with the result?
I use an older Mirage dual 8” sub with a pair of Silverline Minuets.The sub is turned down to barely kick in and fill out the lows. I used speaker level inputs and cut the lows from the monitors. The system is for bedroom tv sound.I’m betting you ...
